Termination Of War And Treaties Of Peace

This valuable text considers methods of terminating wars with and without treaties of peace, and also offers a study of the methods of negotiation, the drafting of treaties and the nature of treaties of peace. Reprint of the sole edition (1916). "It would obviously not be useful to attempt here anything like an inventory or abstract of the contents of a book which is not an argumentative treatise but a storehouse of precedents, and whose value depends on the details being ample and fully verified. Enough to say that it will be of the greatest use to diplomatists and publicists at that uncertain date which will be fixed, the sooner the better, by the definite victory of the Allies."- Law Quarterly Review 33 (1917) 100 Coleman Phillipson [1878-1945], a barrister of the Inner Temple, was the editor of Wheaton's Elements of International Law 5th edition (1915) and the author of numerous titles including International Law and the Great War (1915, reprinted by The Lawbook Exchange 2005) and The International Law and Custom of Ancient Greece and Rome (1911).

A Guide for Diplomats Published at the End of the First World War. While writing this book in 1917, Phillimore anticipated the difficulties that would face diplomats at the conclusion of the First World War. Their task would be, he thought, "a Congress of Vienna, a Hague Conference, and a Geneva Conference rolled into one." Three Centuries of Treaties of Peace and Their Teaching, a historical analysis of treaties enacted from 1582 to 1913, was intended to provide the diplomatic community with "some guidance for the future, that we should thereby acquire some explanation of the condition of Europe on the threshold of the present war, and see the position to which previous diplomatic settlements had brought us" (xii). "The work as a broad, scholarly but condense revue of the peace treaties of three centuries has undoubted interest and value." --CHARLES NOBLE GREGORY, American Journal of International Law 12 (1918) 679. SIR WALTER GEORGE FRANK PHILLIMORE [1845-1929] was a Judge of the High Court Justice from 1897 to 1913, a Lord Justice of Appeal from 1913 to 1916, and in 1918 was raised to the peerage. As an authority on ecclesiastical law and international law Lord Phillimore carried on the tradition of his family. He edited the Second Edition of The Ecclesiastical Law of the Church of England and the Third Edition of Vol. IV of International Law, both by his father, Sir Robert Phillimore. He was President of the International Law Association from 1905-1908. In 1918 he was appointed chairman of the naval prize tribunal. He was the English representative on the commission which sat at The Hague (1920) to prepare the scheme of a permanent Court of International Justice, and was also chairman of the Foreign Office committee on the League of Nations.

This provocative challenge to US policy and strategy maintains that America endures endless wars because its leaders no longer know how to think about war.

After a war breaks out, what factors influence the warring parties' decisions about whether to talk to their enemy, and when may their position on wartime diplomacy change? How do we get from only fighting to also talking? In The Costs of Conversation, Oriana Skylar Mastro argues that states are primarily concerned with the strategic costs of conversation, and these costs need to be low before combatants are willing to engage in direct talks with their enemy. Specifically, Mastro writes, leaders look to two factors when determining the probable strategic costs of demonstrating a willingness to talk: the likelihood the enemy will interpret openness to diplomacy as a sign of weakness, and how the enemy may change its strategy in response to such an interpretation. Only if a state thinks it has demonstrated adequate strength and resiliency to avoid the inference of weakness, and believes that its enemy has limited capacity to escalate or intensify the war, will it be open to talking with the enemy. Through four primary case studies—North Vietnamese diplomatic decisions during the Vietnam War, those of China in the Korean War and Sino-Indian War, and Indian diplomatic decision making in the latter conflict—The Costs of Conversation demonstrates that the costly conversations thesis best explains the timing and nature of countries' approach to wartime talks, and therefore when peace talks begin. As a result, Mastro's findings have significant theoretical and practical implications for war duration and termination, as well as for military strategy, diplomacy, and mediation.
